It's a good school. I wasn't too fond of the previous principle but the new one, Mr Hume, a former high school teacher of mine, is one of the best the school board would get.nnMy daughter attends here and I love her so much and wish her the best in her high school journey.
The bathrooms can be terrible at times, like it is so dirty and kinda small. I'm not going to leave my backpack outside the stall, but if I don't, it's so crowded. Honestly, it doesn't help in the winter that the water in the taps is cold as well. It's kinda miserable.
Bathrooms are always full of vapors, the washroom's hygiene are extremely bad, and the wifi cuts off every 5 minutes of usage around 60-120 mbs. They need to reconsider some teachers.
Excellent School. As a parent I believe WCI offers all rounded development for my son with very active math club, robotics club, student council and more.nnTeachers here are very well qualified with many having years of Industry experience.nnIts website guidance page links need refresh as many postings are years old and no longer relevant. I wish they had staff to monitor various website sections since as a parent we rely a lot on website beyond parents teacher meeting, calendar and school day emails.nnAlso it would be nice if guidance can provide waitlisting number in course when student sees no space. I was told there was grade 12 math availability in two separate emails and later told it is full. Not sure if it was accidental error or racial discrimination. This has happened twice in last 3 years.nnA school kid dropped $90 in cycle parking. We returned it at office and asked office to let us know if they found right owner. No reply from school principal on two emails.nnBut these are operational and administrative issues which can be sorted out by better unbiased management.nnWe send our kids for education and overall development and I am very happy with that side of things.
As someone who has attended both Waterloo Collegiate, and Sir john A. Macdonald secondary, I can definitely say my two years at WCI was quite memorable, but not necessarily for the best reasons. At least half of the staff I worked with had extremely racist tendencies, and treated myself, my brother, as well as others unfairly and in an extremely unjust manner compared to 'other' for lack of better wording students. Whenever concerns were brought up, those same teachers would essentially tell me to get over it... My specific VP, as well as the front desk was also unhelpful - if not less - than teachers. Luckily, the school has an amazing principal who takes these situations very seriously, and I was given the opportunity to transfer schools without a question. The Air Conditioning and cleanliness is another topic entirely.. would be appreciated if things were more up kept. I recommend this school if you live close-by... otherwise not my first choice.
